Few travellers make a stop in the Mediterranean city of Marsa Matruh on their way through Egypt. Maybe that's why part of the city is completely abandoned.
12:27 I think I speak for all of us when I say that we appreciate you taking the time not only to shoot but edit these videos, let alone allow us to travel, experience and learn 'how to be a true vagabond' with you! I look forward to your videos every week bud, keep it up!!
Regardless of all the difficulties and lack of clear information available to any adventurous trotter like you !! It's 5he most realistic and hilarious video I've seen about a backpacker's experience in Egypt , all the best wishes for 2023 and thanks fir the great effort you made !! Lucky you were not there in summer 🔥
Thank you so much for watching Hesham! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Yes I could not handle an Egyptian summer, too hot for me! Many more travel videos to come
You should see it in summer !! Barely can see the sand on the beach with 40 km stalled road from Alexandria entering Matrouh , you're there in the best time of the year , I wish I was there and met you to show you some off road fantastic places , true it's not touristic to fireigners but it's one of the most popular and affordable summer destinations for Egyptians .
Hi Michael, thanks for asking! I wasn't following any particular budget for this trip, but I generally travel quite frugally. In total I averaged close to US$15 per day, and that includes a handful of more expensive activities. Accommodation, transportation and food are all inexpensive in Egypt. I also occasionally wild-camped for free which saved a bit of money.
The part next to the beach is not bad, but the city and facilities are desperate. This year, for the first time, our travel agencies here in Serbia are taking a hotel chain from Dubai to this place. But I'm not sure if that city is the right choice.
I went to Matruh 5 times and visited many beaches there, and I think you missed a lot of wonderful beaches by not visiting them. Next time, take someone who knows the town with you to show you the places you should not miss.

Ah ok I didn't know Matrouh was so popular in the summer, thank you for sharing! Next time I would love to see the off road places with you.

As someone who would love to do this someday, Im curious as to what your budget was. Was it broken down per day for 30 days?

Welcome in my hometown my marsa matrouh
Thank you, you have a beautiful hometown!
Marsa Matruh and surrounding areas have very nice beaches that you barely see
It's true! I don't know why that area of the country isn't more touristy
Where do you find your places for rent
These days I almost always use the Booking app. The more accommodations you book, the more discounts you get 😉

Oh wow really! Very interesting
Hey Ben bon voyage
Hey Arlind nice to hear from you, and thanks for watching! Are you all done work for the season?
You Are Choosing Right Country To Explore
Yes it's been very interesting so far! Have you been to Egypt?
9 bucks a night , what a great deal . Thanks Ben .
Yeah that place was a major find. Thanks for watching Mike!
@@benbrazyoutube how do you find places to rent? Is Airbnb best option or something better?
@@sustainableliving6319 i almost exclusively use booking .com. I find it has the widest variety of cheap accommodations

Glad we can help you to feel less alone! ;-) Looks like an epic little town you found there, and a pretty good deal for accommodation.
Yeah well the town was mostly dead but it had cool vibes. The apartment and view made it a cool experience
🇧🇷❤❤ 🇪🇬
🙂
If by accident you are in Spain in January, let me know. Prost :)
As coincidence would have it, I will very briefly be in Seville in December but I am only passing through on my way to Portugal 🇵🇹
@@benbrazyoutube Oh damn, too bad, would've loved to meet you, have a walk and good talks. Maybe some other time =)
@@Beatbreaker34 Yeah that would be great! Stay in touch
@@benbrazyoutube Definitely
For the Algorithm.
Thanks bud 🤪😅

Good to know, thank you. Marsa Matruh's beaches are now on my list of places to visit next time
